such is the send-off consumers are giving to the last twinkies made for now in the u.s. and sent off to market. a sugar-rush worthy of black friday fell throughout chicago supermarket chain jewel-osco. the last 20,000 boxes of twinkies distributed by hostess brands were snapped up as if it was the fountain of youth in a sponge cake. "i used to eat them. when i was a kid, i enjoyed them." hostess brands filed for bankruptcy november 16th. since then, a cream-filled wave of nostalga has transformed the junk food into an icon of americana to be preserved - as if it needed help being preserved. "the shelf life of these will be a long time." [laughs "they're just gonna have one, not tons." at this store, 171 boxes went in less than a half-hour - some destined to show up on ebay, others to provide a look back in time. "i just want my kids to have some since they won't be around anymore." reportedly, the hedge funds that assumed control of hostess brands are in active talks with more than a hundred potential buyers for the name, recipe and rights to twinkies and other products.
